1. So the idea is that you sign up here to be part of this and submit your ONE or TWO page comic scene with your MAIN character in it (that's already drawn and been published on DD or somewhere else).2. THEN we'll assign you someone else's scene.3. Then you redraw that whole scene but with YOUR character replacing the original main character.

The exercise is for you to work out how your character would handle that unfamiliar sort of situation if they were facing it as well as adapting their outfit and hair to fit the setting so they fit in with it correctly: like if they were a time traveller and didn't want to look out of place.

DON'T make them go “Hey, where am I? what am I doing here?”. NO None of that fish out of water crap.They have to act as if they ARE the natural main character in this new setting, as if they have always been there.

When (if) we get enough people to make it a thing then we'll just start assigning pages. :)If this moves sow and we only have a couple of people participating then we'll start anyway. There doesn't have to be a huge group :)

You could have done it more like the secret santa to allow for the odd number. Like, instead of pairs, character B in A scene, Character C in B scene, A in D scene, etc. Might make things more interesting.

Hmm, we can do that next time. I though of that but then I wanted to know how a straight swap switcheroo would work so the viewer can directly compare how things change, you know?Bravo dropped out and graciously gave me a space so it's me Vs Ashtree now.

And we can always mix this up and have multiple shots at the idea if we're inclined. Especially if it's just one page scenes- they're already plotted out and drawn so it's way less effort to draw them than it is to create from scratch.

Due any time within the next two weeks so that people have enough time to fit this new thing within our existing projects.

What's due in the next two weeks? The initial scenes or the redrawn versions?

The re-draws, but if you can't get a scene ready in time, just have a word with Usedbooks and you two can talk about what to do.There's no penalty for breaking any deadlines here. It's just an arbitrary number to encourage people to start :)

It took me a while to put a script together, but I'm to the coloring step for page one of two. :)

The writing exercise is really fun. It's much the same process as normal script writing. Character in a scenario -> reaction. Someone else's scenario makes it more interesting.(It makes me want to insert my characters in everyone's stories. I have a feeling they'd get killed off at least half the time.)

I have only half done, but it's going to be a while before I can get onto the second page. (Fitting in time between working on UB updates.) I figured I'd post what I have and keep this thread moving.

Irrevenant provided this scene from Tales of the Unpredictable Chaos:

I inserted Seiko from Used Books, a fair protagonist with pretty much zero physical prowess. – It took me an embarrassingly long time to come up with how she could/would react to the situation. In her native comic, “bad guys” rarely see her as enough of a threat to initiate this type of confrontation.
